GREDO has commenced drilling a new strategic borehole in Xudur under the @Danwadaag_DS HARBS project funded by @UKinSomalia. The launch was attended by local authorities, community representatives, and the Ministry of Water. This comes at a critical time as Xudur like many other parts of the country, faces anticipated water crises due to failed rain seasons.
This strategic water infrastructure will significantly improve access to clean and safe water and contributes to durable solutions for Somali communities affected by recurring droughts.
